“…[21][22][23] Concerning the F11 gene, the existence of AS isoforms has been known for many years. 6,10,26 Unfortunately, information on the splicing pattern of this gene is still unclear, if not misleading. Indeed, most nucleotide and protein databases still report the existence of a "FXI isoform 2," lacking amino acids from 91 to 144, 10,37 notwithstanding that this isoform was not confirmed by more recent literature 5,25 and the relevant reference sequence (NM_019559.2) was removed from GenBank (National Center for Biotechnology Information) because of insufficient supporting data.…”
